"The house is pretty and in a great location. It has everything you need to cook, beds are comfortable but lacking linens and pillows. No blankets provided/no extra pillow or towels. We had a hard time connecting with the internet, one of the codes didn't work at all... so we didn't get the instructions or passcodes until later in the day... Our host, Jennifer was great, nice and receptive."

"This villa was perfect for what we wanted...a quiet, secure and private place that is in walking distance to the beach. After touring the town, we were very happy with the location for the proximity to great restaurants, a local convenience store and a little less crowded beach than some of the spots to the north. Our concierge was very helpful and responsive with anything we needed and the villa itself was great...just as the pictures show. Wishing we were still there!"

Top Malpais Hotel Reviews

Hotel Santa Teresa by the Beach

Hotel Santa Teresa by the Beach

10/10 Excellent
"We had the room 401 with a very nice balcony and view on the sea. The king bed was awesome and we used the kitchen basics. Good coffee machine. The pool was clean and ideal for hot days. The breakfast was delicious and efficient; shout out to the team!! Excellent job. The beach is walking distance. I just wish the surroundings of the hotel was a little bit cleaner (dog poop on the sidewalks for example). I enjoyed the free purified water machine, ice and coffee always available; best feature of all my hotels in Costa Rica. Some light touch ups are required : the tile in the bathroom was broken and my son cut himself on it. Overall, would recommend!!"
